' Wrote:There have been sanction for docking when a lawful says no, particularly when you're violating house law. They probably should have been Gunboats, though, if you were in a trade ship.
InRP, all the Bonn Station docks and moors have been locked down... game mechanics prevent that from actually happening though.
True if i was in a junker, or such ship i could be FR5'd to lawfuls for docking. But i am IC tagged, and even a lawful cannot deny a player from docking at thier own base. If so? no junkers/pirates/unlawfuls groups would be to land on thier bases, because lolwut lawfuls would si their yelling "we locked base down, you no dock haha" So sorry. I will keep docking at bases that have same tag as my ID. If admins are fully into saying base is locked out to all, including its owners? then they can lock it down in game. Since they have not?
1) Rheinland isn't going to come out of this looking good.
2) IC has a whole really hasn't lost anything. The number of goods we were allowed to haul in that house was rather pathetic anyway, which is the real reason for all of this. By and large the indies Rheinland is mad at were hauling LEGAL CARGO that just wasn't one of the few things their players decided to let us haul.
3) This conflict was inevitable, based on the lore.

That would just be classic. If admins really REALLY want this to be proper RP they would do just that. Lets see Rheinlanders cry when they need to cruise everywhere through those rock fields in Turtles.
All you need to do is just knock out one single trade lane ring in a lane, maybe one ring down in each system to get the point across. The entire net does not have to go down, but that would be enough to cause massive disruptions and let pirates get to potential yummy spots
Turn Rheinland into a wasteland... A great house fallen into shadow, torn into chaos. The systems strewn with debris, criminal scum or even more -alien- horrors lurk amidst the rocks... Remnant societies crop up in different systems in a fruitless attempt to retain power and order, but instead prey on their neighbors, becoming much like the lawless thieves they once vowed to eradicate. Feuds amongst families, brother fighting brother, a real land of terror.
Or is it a land of opportunity?
With the remnant societies locked away deep within the house, they are desperate for supplies, both for survival, and for war... A Freelancer with the right connections and a quick wit can find payoffs unlike Sirius has ever seen if he dares enter the Chaos that is Rheinland...
Now the cards are in your hands;)Will you play the riches seeking trader, dodging danger and death at ever turn? Or will you be one of the many evils Rheinland has to offer, taking from your neighbor's suppliers in the ever continuing war of attrition? The choice is yours...
There is already a plan in place that has been created with the Devs and the Bundestag of Rheinland that'll guide the course of it's future and what effects Rheinland and IC will/may experience due to the ongoing event in the RP forums. :3
